SV-EMS-220/221 Installation and Configuration    
7-50    SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision R 
Capacitance-to-Voltage Converter installation instructions. 
Note that SkyView displays are typically preconfigured to use resistive probes. Using capacitive 
sensors instead of resistive probes requires that you change EMS settings in a few places. First, 
change the pins used for fuel quantity via the SETUP MENU > EMS SETUP > PIN SENSOR INPUT 
MAPPING… menu. Then, delete the default fuel quantity widgets from each screen layout 
under SETUP MENU > EMS SETUP > SCREEN LAYOUT EDITOR. Finally, add the new fuel quantity 
widget(s) that will be available for the capacitive probes. 
Ammeter Shunt 
The ammeter shunt should be mounted so that the 
metal part of the shunt cannot touch any part of the 
aircraft. The ammeter shunt can be installed in your 
electrical system in one of three locations as shown in 
Figure 42. 
If you have a Vertical Power VP-X system in your 
aircraft, use either position A or position B. Position C is not useful in a VP-X installation 
because the VP-X measures aircraft loads directly. 
  Position A–Ammeter indicates current flow into or 
out of your battery. In this position, it will show 
both positive and negative currents (i.e., -60 amps 
to +60 amps). 
  Position B–Ammeter indicates only the positive 
currents flowing from the alternator to both the 
battery and aircraft loads. (0A-60A) 
  Position C–Ammeter indicates the current flowing only into the aircraft loads. (0A-60A) 
Note that the ammeter shunt is not designed for the high current required by the 
starter and must not be installed in the electrical path between the battery and 
starter. 
The Ammeter Shunt packaging may be marked 40mV/40A. However, Dynon rates 
the shunt for up to 60A loads.
